Amy Ruth's Restaurant
Weekend throngs are frequent, such is the fame of Amy Ruth's waffles - you can choose from chocolate, strawberry, blueberry or one with fried chicken - but during weekdays it's usual calm enough to enjoy your candied yams, deep-fried fish with okra, collard greens and red-velvet cake in relative peace.

Better Burger
This sleek, bright, fast-food joint offers organic, hormone-free burgers made from your choice of beef, ostrich, turkey, chicken, tuna, soy or mashed veggies. All come on homemade whole-wheat buns and are topped with homemade 'tomato zest,' a sophisticated version of ketchup. To really treat yourself, add an order of the air-baked 'fries,' which are so good you'll swear they were dunked in grease, and one of several smoothies or bottled beers.

Josie's Restaurant
Organic fare (with its provenance listed on the menu) that satisfies vegans, vegetarians and meat eaters alike has kept Josie's around for more than a decade. It's clean, simple ambiance is reflected in the food -steak, salads, gorgeous veggie dishes, but nothing too processed or tortured.

Pies-N-Thighs
It's a bit rough looking from the outside, but once you get through the Williamsburg Rock Star Bar to where the cooking gets done, you'll have forgotten the 15-foot barbed wire fence outside. This is southern cooking done right - pulled pork, mac 'n' cheese, homemade bread and double-crusted pies oozing organic berries.

Son Cubano
Bringing a touch of Little Havana to the West Side, with mojitos, conga drummers and spicy tapas, Son Cubano is a popular after-work and weekend drinking, dining and dancing establishment. Dishes include grilled pulp o with a smoky sauce, plantains and a daily seviche.
-
Soy Luck Club
Lots of the menu items are indeed soy-based - the soy chicken and fontina (wheat-free) crepe, the tofu salad and avocado sandwich, and the mesclun, edamame and soy-nut salad, just for starters - but there's plenty here too for the soy-phobic. Panini, salads and brunch items, some even containing meat, abound.
